York Maze has unveiled this year's Toy Story-themed maze, marking 30 years since the beloved film was released.
Yorkshire farmer Tom Pearcy has cut over 5km of pathways into his 15-acre field of over a million maize (corn) plants to create the world’s biggest Toy Story characters.
Covering an area the size of 8 Wembley football pitches, York Maze is believed to be the biggest maze in Europe and one of the largest in the world.
When viewed from the air, this year's York Maze design features giant images of four of the Toy Story characters; Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Rex and Mr Potato Head.
At up to 150m tall they are believed to be the biggest Toy Story images ever made.
Tom Pearcy said:
“I can’t believe it’s 30 years since Toy Story was first released.
"The characters are loved by children and adults alike so it makes a great theme for our giant corn maze which can be enjoyed by all ages.
"Toy Story was the first full-length animated film created using computer-generated imagery (CGI), I also use a form of CGI to create the maze design before transferring into and the latest GPS technology to plot out the design in the corn field."
The Toy Story 30th anniversary tribute Maze is open for visitors to explore from Saturday (12th July) to Monday 1st September 2025 when the crop will be harvested.
